Schedule

No loading at any time

Broadway: Both sides from a point 22.3m east of the eastern extended kerb line of White Road, in an easterly direction for 44m

Statement of reasons

As part of the new development of Plot D3 on the south side of Broadway just east of White Road, it has been identified that there is a need for no loading at any time restrictions on Broadway adjacent to a new residential development to discourage inappropriate loading and unloading or stopping on this busy stretch of road.

The no loading/unloading restrictions would discourage inappropriate parking by delivery vehicles, disabled drivers or taxis etc, on this busy stretch of highway, which would disrupt traffic flows and cause congestion, leading to driver frustration.

It is therefore proposed to introduce 'No loading at any time' on both sides of the road for the full section of Broadway between the existing controlled pedestrian crossing and the traffic signals at junction with White Road (side) street.
